About
Keenable is an independent web search infrastructure built for AI labs, inference platforms, agents, and developers that need fast, high-quality access to the live web. Its Search API gives AI systems a web-scale index of more than 100 billion documents and is designed for low-latency retrieval, with performance optimized for production agent workloads. Agents can search web pages and fetch page content through a REST API, MCP server, or command-line interface using the same account and API key. It continuously evaluates and improves search quality using its NEEDLE benchmark, which compares retrieval performance across search providers and measures results against an oracle ranking built from pooled results. For larger AI workloads, Keenable supports dedicated search capacity as well as cloud and on-premises deployment options. Its Time Machine capability extends retrieval beyond the current web by providing point-in-time search across historical versions of pages.

About
Perplexity has launched the Perplexity Search API, giving developers access to the same global-scale indexing and retrieval infrastructure that powers Perplexity’s public answer engine. The API indexes hundreds of billions of webpages and is optimized for the unique demands of AI workflows; it breaks documents into fine-grained subunits so that responses return highly relevant snippets already ranked against the original query, reducing preprocessing and improving downstream performance. To maintain freshness, the index processes tens of thousands of updates every second using an AI-driven content understanding module that dynamically parses web content and iteratively self-improves via real-time query feedback. The API returns rich, structured responses suitable for both AI agents and traditional apps, rather than limited, document-level outputs. Alongside the API, Perplexity is releasing an SDK, an open source evaluation framework, and detailed research into their design.
